:'( I guess it's time for me to say goodbye to Enigma...Pity, I was just about to import all of the volumes too....although there is a slight chance it'll survive still...I sadly don't think it will...........

On a happier topic-Go Sket!!! ：D

 

[Animeace]

Great to see Kurogane off to a good start tho most one shots usually star off good and then get axed.XD Hopefully it can hang around a while really enjoying it.

Kurogane isn't ranked yet.

 

[Jaymie]

Bakuman is where it deserves to be.

Are we sure that HxH isn't ranked? It makes sense for it to be ranked if it's been eight weeks (I'm not sure if it has been eight weeks though).

Enigma is a goner, but it had a good run. I'm glad that Magico was able to jump up in the rankings, even if I'm bored with it ATM.

Sket Dance!! just awesome!! can't belive it. they should do a sket dance cover.
poor enigma, stars and magico is better it has a chance again.
how much chapters from kurogane for the ranking?

 

[OPN]

goodbye enigma. i guess this means now if a series does a reveal for the main antagonist like enigma and psyren did its basically a death wish but eh it had a good run. besides that its nice to see beelzebub rise and bakuman is where i expected it to be.

I think HxH not going to be ranked because it might go to hiatus again.

Forget Toriko, Sket Dance became the 3rd member of the Big3 for me.

It's on chapter 7 now...starting with chapter 8, for others with chapter 9, it's going to be ranked officially.

Yeah, Kurogane has placed in ToC, but it isn't ranked. New series doesn't get ranked until chpater 8 or 9 (I think we're still debating on that part); until that the editors put the series in any place. This week's Kurogane's chapter is 7; thus its officially get ranked in next week (or week after). You should read how ToC system works in first post of this thread.

Ah I didnt know that sorry.XD

Sket Dance before Naruto !! It makes me excited to read the chapters that deserve such a place. The last ones are already hilariously great.
As for Mago and Enigma, it seems to me like they have given up to make better in the TOC and do has they please. Their tone feels much darker than it used to be.

 

[Sky Render]

God damn. Just when I was starting to relax about Bleach's rank, Bakuman falls behind Magico.

Get up, dammit. Oh, well, it will. The arc's awesome ending and short duration should make the fast-paced Bakuman get back in shape after a few weeks, I hope. I guess it needs a "Fullbring period" in order to get things going and wrap up the story once and for all.

I really gotta read Sket Dance, but the first chapters are so meh... does it get better?

 

[Googlez_kun]

Bakuman deserves its low place.I'm sure the last two chapters will rank better,but those ranked chapters sucked dryed horse balls,so it's not a surprise.

On another note,way to go Sket Dance!Beating Naruto is a great feat.I should finally catch up on Sket Dance.

In fine, Sket Dance is the serie of Jump I enjoy the most at the moment. You have to like this kind of humor, but if you do, I promise you won't be disappointed. You can try the anime if you want a faster paste.

 

[Schabrak]

Looks like the fan-service overload in Bleach didn't get the long-acting push it needed for the last couple of months. :P This week was good, but I don't know it will appease the fans for the turn of events. And it seems like kids really love the arcobaleno arc, probably even more with the new revelations.

Romance and/or Ecchi Average Rankings

I''s: ----------------- 2.71
Kagami no Kuni: - 6.57 (Kano Yasuhiro) Serializing
Pretty Face: ------ 6.57 (Kano Yasuhiro)
Ichigo 100%: ----- 7.86
To Love Ru: ------- 8.71
Lilim Kiss: ---------- 10.86
Hatsukoi Limited:--12.86
Ane Doki: ---------- 14.00

Well look at that, intereting to say the least. It shows a very clear decline in how the ecchi mangas rank, out of the top of my head the way this manga were published corresponds exactly to how they were published on JUMP except for Kagami no Kuni, what I mean is I''S was the first published and it had the highest ranking in JUMP while the last IIRC Ane Doki got the lowest and Kagami No Kuni broke the mold..

I will add other romance manga like Video Girl Ai, Kimagure Orange Road and that manga made by Togashi (Can't remember name), does any other ecchi story exist in JUMP?? I might be forgetting some (Very likely)

Oh and thanks Zero

 

[Rejuvenation]

Oh wow Sket took first place this week. I absolutely love seeing that after the long road its been on and all of the recent success it has had over the last year.

Toriko rose more to the #3 spot. I was happy it has consistently been top 5 but seeing it in the top 3 again is always better.

Not surprised by Bakuman's low rank. It is fully deserved. Harusigawa appears to be cooling off a bit more. Lets see if it can hang around a bit and stabilize itself there or if it starts sinking like a rock.
